 DESCRIPTION

This early Matchbox is the only example of the Astom Martin DB2 ever produced in small-scale diecast. Without interior or windows, this grey-wheel variation is one of the pioneers of 3-inch toy cars. The DB2 is one of the most collectible regular wheel Matchbox and in mint condition would be worth $45-50.
